We live in Saudi Arabia and my neighbor, Kokub who is from Pakistan makes the most amazing mango chutney. A few years ago she invited me to help her. Of course, she doesn't use a recipe, so the NEXT time I went over with my measuring cups and scale so I could recreate her magic on my own. What an incredible experience!

An unusual combo of ingredients - green pears and green mangoes - that work perfectly in this chutney. Goes well with any curry as well as roast pork. Use dried cranberries or sultanas if you can't find sour cherries.

This is a mango chutney that I developed that in my opinion and family and friends, is the best. It includes a small amount of chilli, but should you be averse to it, leave it out. Other key ingredients, apart from the obvious fresh mangoes are ginger and garlic but there are more herbs...read on. It's easy by the way and you won't buy any after this!

The gooey brie mixed with the crunchy phyllo and the tangy mango chutney makes the perfect appetizer or party pleaser! It wows company every time I make it. Red pepper jelly also works well instead of the mango chutney.
